Info Hero

ATL Skill: Locate, organise, analyse, evaluate, synthesize and ethically use information from a variety of sources and media

Finding information online is a highly important skill. Once we have found what we need, it is crucial that we organise the resources in a way that makes them easy to find and reference. Above all, it is vital that appropriate referencing is evident to give the original author of work to give credit for original work. Tip: Use “advanced search” options in Google to organise results by date!
